It’s in our store in Dayton and it lasts all week — the 5th Annual Marco’s Paper Spring Spectacular from April 25 thru May 1! Seven days of fun and frivolity, with Free Make & Takes and Demos, 25% to 40% Off Selected Items — and a Different Product Line on Sale Each Day! I realize that you folks out in the hinterlands wish you could be here (and you can – road trip), but keep in mind that the locals wish they could be at shows with you! Here are some highlights . . .

As I said, there will be sale items all week and a featured product line each day – but yesterday, Gary didn’t know which line on which day. I suggest you stop by each day – or at least call the store at 937-433-7030 and ask the nice person who answers for the featured line of the day.
As soon as I hit the “publish” button, I am officially “outta here” until Thursday – the next post in this quality publication will likely contain golf photos . . .
